When I first started watching "In the Snow", I had this question in my mind. Xu Xiao, the King of Northern Liang, commanded a division of 350,000 tigers and wolves, swept the world invincible. He laid half of the foundation for the imperial court, but the imperial court has always distrusted him, killing his wife and wanting to kill his son. If this were to be replaced by me, it would simply be reversed, so why should I be wronged by this?
Later, I understood that Xu Xiao was more refined than anyone else, and he knew very well in his heart that rebellion could not be achieved. Although the Northern Liang Army was only the leader of the horse, but that was when fighting other countries, if there was really infighting, how many of his soldiers would follow to the death was unknown.
Although the imperial court is not good for him, it is okay for the people, and if he rushes to raise an army and his name is not right, it will be difficult to win.
There is also Xu Xiao because of his benevolence, saying that he is benevolent may not be understood by many people, because Xu Xiao has been fighting for many years and killing countless people, so he has the title of "human slaughter", how can such a person be called benevolent?
Just because Xu Xiao had fought too many battles and seen too many dead people, he could better appreciate the cruelty of war, and it was not easy to have a peaceful and prosperous world, and it was not his wish to rise again, after all, the imperial court could not stand him.
If he rebelled on impulse, regardless of the outcome, he only said how many soldiers would die in the process and how many people would be displaced.
And there is also beimang tiger eye, if the infighting will only make the Beimang fishermen profitable, then the whole country will be plunged into the water.
Xu Xiao's allegiance was not to the imperial court or to any emperor, he had the world in mind and fought for the people of Li. It was like a overseer, watching the emperor serve the people well, and if he didn't do a good job, then drive him down, so the imperial court would be so jealous of him, bent on weakening his power.
In fact, Xu Xiao is difficult, rebellion is impossible, and letting go is even more difficult. If there was no Northern Liang Army, the Xu family would suffer the disaster of extinction, so he must Xu Fengnian inherit his own position, only in this way can the Xu family be saved.
And Xu Fengnian did not disappoint Xu Xiao, perfectly inheriting Xu Xiao's will and solving his dilemma.
He did not want to be bound by the identity of the King of Northern Liang in the jianghu, was forced to cultivate martial arts, and eventually became the first in the world, forcing the imperial court to dare not act ill of the Xu family and Northern Liang with his own strength, and at the same time realized his dream and escaped in the jianghu.
